Madison Fielding Plants Music Outdoors

Madison Fielding, maker of high-end outdoor speakers that masquerade as planters, has introduced the Flagstone PlanterSpeaker series. The lineup comprises three “fully weatherproof” models made of UV-rated industrial-grade poly resin, each featuring a planting tray for flowers or plants.

The Flagstone ($3,495/pr) is a 22-inch-tall 8-ohm model featuring a tweeter/midrange/woofer complement imported from the respected French speaker maker Audax. Respective ratings for bandwidth, power handling, and sensitivity are 40 Hz-18 kHz, 150 watts/channel, and 89 dB. A pair of these speakers is said to cover up to 1,000 square feet.
